(If you have no clue what gdm is, skip a few paragraphs down first)

The 2.15.10 release is an unstable release of GDM with the following
new features.

- Now gdmlogin centers cursor in the GUI to ensure that the login
   window always has focus.  Fixes bug 327530.

- Translation updates (Subhransu Behera, Rahul Bhalerao, Wouter
   Bolsterlee, Maxim Dziumanenko, Artur Flinta, Leonid Kanter,
   Gabor Kelemen, Priit Laes, Ani Peter, Hendrik Richter, Satoru
   SATOH, Funda Wang

Note that this also contains an important security fix that was
originally released in 2.15.4, so please make sure to update if
using an older version than 2.15.4.

Note:  GDM2 was originally written by Martin K. Petersen <mkp@mkp.net>.
Much work has been done on GDM2 by George Lebl, and Brian Cameron
currently shares maintainership duties with the Queen of England.

Note2:  If installing from the tarball do note that make install
overwrites most of the setup files, all except gdm.conf.  It will
however save backups with the .orig extension first.

#ifndef GDM_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
